Dear all,
I am trying to verify some intelligence that was sent from behind enemy linies in the province of Overijssel (in eastern) Holland during October/November 1944.
According to a Jedburgh team, there were 8.000 - 10.000 Germans parachute troops stationed at Enter [a place in Twente, in the Overijssel province] at the end of October 1944.
In addition, at the end of October 1944, there was a German parachute division stationed at the river IJssel. There were 60.000 German troops available at that time for defending the positions at the IJssel, according to this team.
In november 1944, 60.000 Germans troops arrived in Twente en Achterhoek (in eastern Holland), based on this Jedburgh intelligence.
Can anyone here shed some light on the reliability of this data?
Thanks and regards.
